I forgot to add that the best approach in all ways would be to write a
small C program to do what add-active-nov or the procmail recipe I
posted does.  It'd be small, since it could be linked against the code
in procmail itself.  The only factor here is the time needed in
understanding the code in procmail, which isn't very easy reading coz
of all the optimizations the author does.  (2 of the files break both
GNU and BSD indent, for starters :-).

PS: It's a pity that I have to do all those echo's to strip
whitespace, since procmail itself does this for pipe actions that
don't contain shell metachars (try an `echo tabbed and spaced string`
with VERBOSE=ON).  I can't think of any way to access this feature w/o
doing an echo/pipe, tho.  If anyone has any suggestions as to how to
do this, I'd be very grateful.
